Martha O’Grady became a Forest Guide to share her passion for the great outdoors. As Thich Nhat Hanh says: “Cherishing our precious Earth – falling in love with the Earth – is not an obligation. It is a matter of personal and collective happiness and survival.” As a member of the Plum Village Order of Interbeing, Martha has a long-standing mindfulness practice which heightens her sense of gratitude for the land and all who traverse it. When not out exploring State or National Parks, Martha writes and produces videos through Panta Rhei Media. She completed a Masters in Communication Studies at Northern Illinois University and a BA at Seton Hill University.
